In 2015, Randye4 led the defending national champions to an 8-5 record, and a victory over Ohio State in the Land of 10,000 Lakes Bowl. The Tide finished 2015 ranked #22. The 2016 season was another good one for Randye, coaching the Tide to a 14-1 record with a loss to Notre Dame in the CFBHC Playoff Semi-Finals. Alabama finished the 2016 season ranked #3 in the final coaches poll. 2017 was a serious setback, with a record of 3-9, finishing unranked in the coaches poll and without a bowl appearance. Alabama came back with a vengeance in 2018, tallying an undefeated 16-0 record and winning the National Championship, marking Randye4's second national title. In 2019 Alabama recorded 11 wins and 3 losses, ending the season with a loss in the CFBHC Playoff Semi-Finals to Clemson. After the season, Randye4 retired from coaching the Tide, finishing with a career record of 66 wins and 19 losses.

CadeRich5 era (2020-present)

Following Randye4's retirement, CadeRich5 was hired as the new Head Coach. CadeRich5 had just come off of a top recruiting class and a 10 win season at Oregon. CadeRich5 left Oregon after being HC there since 2014. CadeRich5's inaugural season at Alabama was an impressive 10-3 campaign ending with a victory over Michigan in the Tampa Bowl, 13-6. The 2021 season was less successful, seeing Alabama lose a few close games to some of the best teams in the country, Michigan, Missouri, and Auburn. The Tide finished the season 8-5 with a 24-20 victory over Wisconsin in the Tampa Bowl.
